Lynne Cox has set open water swimming records across the world,
and now she has focused her decades-long experience and expertise
into this definitive guide to swimming. Cox methodically addresses
what is needed to succeed at and enjoy open water swimming,
including choosing the right bathing suit and sunscreen; surviving
in dangerous weather conditions, currents, and waves; confronting
various marine organisms; treating ailments, such as being stung or
bitten, and much more. Cox calls upon Navy SEAL training materials
and instructors' knowledge of open water swimming and safety
procedures to guide her research. In addition, first-hand anecdotes
from SEAL specialists and stories of Cox's own experiences serve as
both warnings and proper practices to adopt.
"Open Water Swimming Manual" provides a wealth of knowledge for all
swimmers, from seasoned triathletes and expert swimmers to
beginners exploring open water swimming for the first time. It is,
as well, the first manual of its kind to make use of oceanography,
marine biology, and to weave in stories about the successes and
failures of other athletes, giving us a deeper, broader
understanding of this exhilarating and fast growing sport.
